** EXCLUSIVE: Four Days in Occupied Western Sahara—A Rare Look Inside
Africa’s Last Colony
------------------------------------------------------------
In this exclusive broadcast, Democracy Now! breaks the media blockade and
goes to occupied Western Sahara in the northwest of Africa to document the
decades-long Sahrawi struggle for freedom and Morocco’s violent crackdown.

Morocco has occupied the territory since 1975 in defiance of the United
Nations and the international community. Thousands have been tortured,
imprisoned, killed and disappeared while resisting the Moroccan occupation.

A 1,700-mile wall divides Sahrawis who remain under occupation from those
who fled into exile. The international media has largely ignored the
occupation—in part because Morocco has routinely blocked journalists from
entering Western Sahara.

In late 2016 Democracy Now! managed to get into the Western Saharan city of
Laayoune, becoming the first international news team to report from the
occupied territory in years. Read More →
